The work contains the analysis of forestry management legal problems in Ukraine and the European Union, highlighting the problematic points in the national legislation and the possibility of implementing the experience of developed countries. There are singled out the ways to improve forestry legislation, with accentuating the need in developing a nation-wide forestry program which would regulate forestry management with accounting for preservation of the forest’s ecology function and biologic potential. It is proved that a woodcutting site has attributes of a forestry relations object as a plot of the forest fund of Ukraine with established borders. Also, there arises the need in revising the Regulation on territorial offices of the central executive power body that carries out state policies in forestry and in bringing it to the correspondence with the requirements of standing legislation of Ukraine and the Regulation on State forest inspection of Ukraine, granting it plenary powers similar to those in the leading European countries, for instance “forest guard” of the Republic of Poland. Key words: Forest; Woodcutting; Timber harvesting; Forest resources; Woodcutting site; Forestry management; Forest site; Forestry.
Problem setting. Social entrepreneurship as a phenomenon has long been known to the world community. Although its formation in Ukraine has started relatively recently, the pace of development of Ukrainian social entrepreneurship is simply impressive. Target of research is to study the main factors promoting social entrepreneurship. To achieve this goal, structural, comparative and statistical research methods were used. Analysis of resent researches and publications. Problems of development of social entrepreneurship have received considerable coverage in the works of scientists: B. Androschuk, N. Gusak, A. Kornetsky, V. Nazaruka, A. Tumanova and others. Article’s main body. A. Kornetsky and B. Androschuk identify three main stages in the development of social entrepreneurship in Ukraine. The first is called the period 1991-2010, when international donors, in particular the United States Agency for International Development, began to finance the development of social entrepreneurship in Ukraine. In 1991, the Law of Ukraine “On the Fundamentals of Social Protection of Persons with Disabilities in Ukraine” was adopted. It is still in force and provides benefits for doing business for people with disabilities, in particular, determines the financing of their business initiatives from a special state fund. The second stage defines the period 2010-2016, which was characterized by the merger of partner organizations into consortia to launch educational and financial programs for social entrepreneurship. In 2010, the Consortium for the Promotion of Social Entrepreneurship in Ukraine was established. With its support, a number of trainings for trainers were conducted, three resource centers were opened (in Kyiv, Donetsk and Lviv) and the first lending program for social enterprises was launched. During this period, the publication of educational materials on social entrepreneurship began. It is believed that the third stage of development of the social enterprise began in 2016 and continues to this day. Significant assistance in the development of social entrepreneurship in Ukraine during this period is provided by the European Union (EU) and some EU member states. Conclusions and prospects for the development. In general, Ukraine is currently at the stage of forming an ecosystem of social entrepreneurship and networking of local centers for its development. In the period from 2016-2020, about 10 Ukrainian-language manuals on social entrepreneurship were published, 3 Ukrainian-language online courses were created. Every year, the number of educational activities aimed at promoting social entrepreneurship increases, and public awareness of the role of social enterprises is growing. However, an important aspect is that, for the most part, the implementation of activities aimed at the development of social entrepreneurship in Ukraine is supported by international donors, rather than government programs and initiatives. Further research should focus on the study of foreign experience in determining the main factors of social entrepreneurship, as well as a detailed analysis of these factors.
Problem setting. One of the current trends in the development of the global tourism industry is the development of Internet technologies, in other words, the modern development of tourism takes place in a digital economy. Tourism is an integral part of Ukraine’s economic development. It is significant that the current Law of Ukraine "On Tourism" [7], adopted in 1995. does not correspond to modern realities and requires comprehensive changes that would meet the interests and modern needs of society, take into account international experience, global trends in tourism and meet the demands of tourism entities. Analysis of recent research. Issues related to the legal regulation of tourism have been the subject of scientific research by such specialists as: N. Bagaeva, A. Gradinarova, T. Orlova, M. Semenova ect. At the same time, despite the interest of scientists in studying this issue, the legal aspects of the development of the tourism industry in the economic development of Industry 4.0 currently require detailed study. Given this, the aim of the article is to analyze the legal regulation of the tourism industry in the digital economy. Article’s main body. The article focuses on the consideration of the legal regulation of the tourism industry in the context of the development of the economy of industry 4.0. Analyzed the draft Law of Ukraine "On Amendments to the Law of Ukraine" On Tourism "and some other legislative acts on the basic principles of tourism development". Based on his analysis, it was proposed to create a Tourism Industry Development Fund as part of a special fund for local budgets. It was noted that in the context of digitalization, the creation of the Unified Tourism Register, as well as the portal of the Unified Tourism Register, is a positive step, however, the issue of data protection mechanisms that are provided by the subjects of tourism activities to the authorized government bodies and are entered into such a register while it needs improvement. Conclusions. Based on the above, we believe that the draft Law of Ukraine "On Amendments to the Law of Ukraine" On Tourism "and some other legislation on the basic principles of tourism development" needs to refine and revise its individual provisions in order to further comprehensive regulation of the tourism industry in the development of the digital economy.
